I know there are comparisons on the web between these models, but I'm hoping some of you guys who had the 2015- 13" MBP, and purchased a 2016-13" non-TB MBP can provide more of a real world comparison.

I'm still on the fence between the 2015 and 2016, and hope some of your insight can help me make a decision.

I currently have a mid-2104-15" MBP which I plan to keep, and I'm leaning towards the 2015-13"MBP, as going from basically the same set up (keys, ports, etc, would be easier for my wife. That said, I love new technology, so the 2016-13" catches my curiosity, as it's supposed to have a brighter/more colorful screen.

In reading this forum, there are concerns about ports (although I know I could live with the USB-C), battery life, and the size of the trackpad and palm rejection, etc.

Additionally, have any of you guys who had a 2014 or 2015 13" MBP, and ordered the 2016. MBP, returned the 2016 in favor of your 2014/2015?

As always, your insight is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
